HALLOWEEN PARADEThe annual TVO I Halloween Parade is scheduled for Friday, October 28th at 7 pm. The parade will start at Dunes Drive and end in Congressional Court. The Marriott’s Ridge High School (MRHS) Marching Band will lead all of the neighborhood ghosts, ghouls, and goblins down Pebble Beach Drive to Boca Raton and end up in Congressional Court.

The HCPD and HCFD will be on hand as well for safety reasons. We ask that all residents help us by clearing all cars and leaf bags from the parade route on that night.

We are in need of 4 – 6 volunteer parade marshals to be positioned along the parade route. This involves wearing an orange vest and being seen throughout the parade route. This is a great opportunity for high school students to get service hours. So if you wait for the parade at a certain location, stick a vest on and be a marshal. Contact a Kevin Powell or James Brown for additional details and to volunteer.

Donations will be collected to support the MRHS Marching Band.
